This place is wild on Saturday nights.
Excellent food, more than my husband and I could eat.
The service was friendly and fast, the music out of this
world. These people really make you feel like one of the
family; I don't know how they managed it (I'm putting
the blame squarely on the good wine!) but they got my
husband and I up to dance and taught us the steps. It
was a real blast, I would totally recommend it to my
friends and am definitely going back again. You should
give it a try!

The food at Taki's mad greek is fresh
and outrageously delicous!

It's a good place to stop for a
gratifying, healthy lunch.

The lunch special is cheap and really
tasty. It's a good bargain because you are getting
incredible food in a nice, family-run restaurant.

I love the atmosphere because the
walls are covered with family photos and colorful murals
of Greece. It feels very amicable and fun.

It's like eating a carefully prepared Greek meal at your
good friend's house.

It's not pretentious, flashy or fussy.
It's simply quality food served by good people.

Taki and his wife Kiki are welcoming
and very friendly. It's very rare for the owner of a
restaurant to converse with the customers. However, I've
had both Taki and Kiki make friendly conversation with
me. Not only is Taki an excellent cook, but he is also
an amazing musician.

They have live entertainment (Taki on
the Bouzouki and Baglama and the Mad Greeks and Belly
Dancing) on Saturdays, which you must have a reservation
for because this place fills up quickly! I'm happy I
discovered this place and I will keep going back.

I often stop in for lunch after
shopping at Value Village. They are located next door to
a Scandanavian bakery and The Tweetery's new location.

This is another diamond in the rough.
I highly suggest this restaurant!

Just went to Taki's tonight and it was
delicious. He is a freakin' master on the grill. His
lamb is the best I've had and being Greek, I've had a
lot in my time. Him and his wife Kiki run the place and
are very sweet.

She takes care of the
front of the house while he expertly handles
the back. Taki is also a world class
bouzouki player and they have Greek music
there on Saturday nights. It's a great
neighborhood joint and every time I go, I
decide that I need to visit it more.

Hands down one of the most memorable
nights in recent years.

A visit to Taki's is worth it just for
his Bouzouki (Greek Guitar) skills! Consider yourself
lucky to arrive on a rainy Saturday for this treat--then
be prepared to sit and sit and sit for hours feasting
and really being part of a PARTY!

Order up the Saganaki (flaming
cheese--not gay--but seriously... lit on fire). I have
had this appetizer all over the country and Taki does it
best.

Then get down with their basic Mad
Greek Special -- a huge skewer each of three various
seasoned meats (I chose two chicken and one
steak). Sounds basic? Bullshit. Taki & Company season
this meat to perfection--you will dream about this plate
in a year from consumption--like I am doing right now.

Belly Dancing. Hopefully you get to
see the beautiful Lisa Yasmeen perform. Amazing
talent. The entire restaurant gets going and you lose
track of time...........like Marty McFly in the Twin
Pines Mall Parking Lot.

I always ate here when I worked at
pizza hut next door a long time ago.

The food is always great. The owner's
wife is so friendly. She always remembered me when I
came in frequently, and sometimes would give me a
complimentary baklava and talk with me. When I came in
with friends, I was always encouraged to sit down and
have water or coffee while we waited for our food. I
love the gyros and the falafel sandwich. Everything is
always fresh and full of flavor.

Efharisto! Amazing service and
authentic Greek culinary magic.

The lamb was cooked perfectly to order
& the calamari were divine. They spotted my Greek blood
immediately, and we shared our favorite spots around
Kerkyra (Corfu), my "old country".

Kiki & Taki were wonderful to meet.
Whether you've ever been to Greece, or just love
flavors of the Mediterranean, make sure not to miss
Taki's. It has humble decor, but is rich with true
Greek cooking and culture.

The gentleman who runs it is a famous
Greek musician. He is so well known that when I
mentioned his name to Grandparents they remembered the
name. If that was not enough even my friend in New
Orleans remembers talking him up in a bar down there.
Small world. Well Besides the back story the food was
amazing. Marinated souvlaki done to perfection I had
beef pork and lamb and all were perfect. The meal was so
fresh and succulent nothing done poorly.

If you truly want fresh food not
frozen like the other Greek places, go to Takis Mad
Greek. Also, on Saturday night it's the best show ever,
with belly dancing, dancing for everyone with
instructors there to show you how to Greek dance (you
won't be sorry if you go). My whole family and friends
that I brought there loved it. And we always make a
point to go back.
